— AccountNGT (@accngt) March 6, 2022 AccountNGT has also added the detail that the new Sly Cooper will not be developed by the series’ original creators at Sucker Punch.

— AccountNGT (@accngt) March 8, 2022 To add a bit of meat to these rumors, a Reddit user discovered the Sly Cooper web domain was recently renewed by Sucker Punch. That doesn’t necessarily mean too much on its own, but when you combine it with the Sly Cooper return rumors, it’s starting to feel like there may be some fire behind this smoke. It seems like the upcoming PlayStation lineup may have a somewhat retro bent, as there are also persistent rumors a new Twisted Metal title is on the way. Of course, take all these rumors with a grain of salt until Sony officially announces something. Speaking of announcements, Sony will stream a new State of Play show tomorrow, although don’t pin your hopes on a Sly Cooper reveal. As usual Sony is being cagey about what the 20-minute presentation will include, but they have said it will focus on “our beloved Japanese publishers,” hinting it will largely be a third-party showcase. What do you think? Is Sly Cooper sneaking back? And are you excited if he is?
